Tattole & Tempel

1New ceramic pieces"Little Tattole and Tempel"

It was inspired by a book "planetarium no Futago" by one of my favorite author Shinji Ishii 2 This was my early summer read. And I loved it! If you read Japanese I highly recommend this book.  It's an adventure and a life story about twin brother Tattole and Tempel who were left in a planetarium in a small town as babies. It's a beautiful novel I read it in a super speed.

4 Tempel (left) becomes a traveling magician and Tattle works as planetarium as a story teller.

5 I'm using a new glazed experimenting now so the color of the Tempel head came out so different than I imagined.  But all the surprise is the best part of doing ceramic!

3 Their hats comes off :) Hmmm what should I put in? Salt and Sugar?
